Here it is… the last day of the Let It Be sessions. It’s not the end of the story though. Click the beautiful grey bar to listen. Come back in a few days to find out how we get from January 1969 to Let It Be’s release 14 months later.

Today we examine the famed Beatles Rooftop Concert. Multiple versions of five songs will be recorded today. In addition to what you expect, we will get a street-level view of the concert.

I think this is the only recording I have of Mal’s voice.

Today is the last day before the famous Apple rooftop concert. Apart from some complaining from Paul in the morning, there isn’t a whole lot of action today. This will give us a little time to compare the Beatles productivity in January 1969 to other periods of their career. George presents another new song. Paul adds some cool vocals that make me wish the Beatles had recorded more of George’s good songs.
